I pretty much finished the auto to manual swap tonight. I'd been working on it off and on all week. I haven't gotten to take it for a full test drive yet though, the Celi was blocked in by other cars.

I can already tell the light weight flywheel and ACT stage 6 clutch are going to take a while to get used to. The engagement is pretty sudden so it takes a bit of finesse to ease into it.

I'm going to miss the leisurely cruises in the auto shifted 3SGTE powered Celi but the swap to manual was much easier than trying to have an A140E built to hold the power of the 3S and probably more reliable in the long run.

The whole thing went rather smoothly, however the upper hard clutch line that I had was obviously the wrong one. I bent it straight and started over. It works, but it's not pretty. If someone could take a pic of the proper routing I'd appreciate it. Or if someone can supply the part number for a pre-bent upper clutch line that'd be awesome too.

Is there anything you can't do?
